Rammed earth offers an economical and sustainable alternative to concrete. The problem like shrinkage, proper soil selection, low compressive strength, cracking, durability aspects is rammed earth construction. One way to address these problems is to stabilize rammed earth. The primary objective of this study is to make use of the RHA(waste material) with NS and understand its effects on the geotechnical properties, compressive strength & weathering. The proctor tests results indicates that with the increase in RHA percentage there was an increase in the Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) and reduction in the Maximum Dry Density (MDD). The cube compressive strength values decreased with subsequent addition of RHA to its maximum at 5% RHA. The deterioration is increases with increasing in RHA content
Deep Dynamic Compaction and Rapid Impact Compaction Adopted to Treat Loose So...Hsuain
The current case study is concerning a facility located near Dammam, Saudi Arabia. The project consisted of three main categories
of design criteria to be achieved. It included nine Bearing Capacity and Settlement criteria for infinite, combined and isolated
foundations, Relative Density (Rd) criterion for Road/Open Areas and Liquefaction Risk Mitigation criterion for the entire site, which
encompassed an area of approximately 180,000m2. The allotted time for soil improvement works was limited to 6 months, due to the
project being of fast-track category. The soil profile was composed largely of granular material and the depth of improvement went
as deep as 10m. Both Dynamic Compaction and Rapid Impact Compaction are popular techniques in compacting granular material,
due to their high efficiency in achieving the design criteria and fast rate of improvement. The techniques are also cost-effective and
clean, in terms not requiring water nor electricity for operations compared to Vibro-Improvement counter techniques, proving to be
value-engineered options. The improvement area was segregated into three regions based on existing loose soils and fill compaction
requirements, wherein the techniques would be implemented independently or in combination with one another. The production
works lasted around 4.5 months. Post-Improvement Quality Control tests indicated the achievement of Design Criteria by a substantial
margin, exemplifying the efficiency of Deep Dynamic Compaction and Rapid Impact Compaction techniques in terms of achieving the
design criteria and a fast rate of production in operations.

The current case study details stone columns construction carried out in response to a geological hazard event instigated
by an incompetent layer-by-layer roller compaction activity. The activity was carried out for substantially thick fill works of +10m
to +11m. The mentioned technique is a considerably conservative approach for fill compaction of such large thickness and the
failure occurred was quite unexpected. An extensive redesign of the location was planned which implied expensive construction
activity. A meticulous geotechnical engineer was able to identify the cause and a cost-effective solution for the area. The current
case study at its core exemplifies the importance of adequate quality control during any activity and the implications of neglecting
the same can have i.e. delays, costs and extensive remediation works. At the same time, the paper presents a case study with a
geological hazard associated with locally present collapsible soils in Riyadh, the risk they pose and the improvement undertaken
to mitigate the risk of future hazards.

A case of using Sand Compaction Pile method to improve the foundation soil for expressway in Vietnam is presented. The sand compaction pile (SCP) method, which forms a composite ground by driving the pile made of compacted sands into soft ground, is one of the commonly used soil improvement techniques in Viet Nam. The SCP method used to improve the ground through the increase of bearing capacity, which is achieved by improving loose sandy soils or accelerating the consolidation of soft clay soils. Within the country where the condition of sand purchase is abundant in Viet Nam, sand compaction pile were often used for soft ground improvement to replace the Load Relief Slab and Soil-Cement Column at Hanoi-Haiphong Expressway Project recently. The procedures used for soil improvement, the instrumentation and the field monitoring data are described. A few observational methods based on settlement records are available to predict future settlement and consolidation behavior, namely the hyperbolic (Tan 1971; Chin 1975) and Asaoka (Asaoka 1978) method. The field data were from the Thai Binh Bridge approached embankment construction at Hanoi-Haiphong Expressway Project.

Comparative Study on Behaviour of Soft Soil Using Various AdmixturesIJMERJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Low bearing capacity and high settlement behaviour of expansive soils is the challenge for the engineers to work on it. But today, there are number of techniques available to control/improve the undesired properties of soil. The paper reviews the performance of different characteristics of soil on insertion of various admixtures like Cement Kiln Dust (CKD), RBI Grade 81, Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Fly Ash. In this paper, an attempt is made to analyse and evaluate the index properties as well as the engineering properties of soil like plasticity, compaction, unconfined compressive strength and California bearing ratio. It was concluded that the consistency limits decreases with the addition of fly ash, CKD, RHA & RBI Grade 8. The unconfined compressive strength & CBR value of treated soil mixture increases with the increase in percentage of CKD and RBI Grade 81.
Soil Stabilization using Fly Ash and Cotton Fiberijtsrd
Mixing of fiber for ground improvement has been practiced for recent years. Many researches has shown the expected results. This paper mainly deals with the ground improvement technique using both Fly Ash and cotton fiber. The combination of them gives a satisfactory value of its practical application. Both Fly Ash and Cotton fiber are treated as waste materials in our country in spite of having its engineering significances. Here all the tests were performed accepting the Fly Ash percent is 10 for maximum bearing capacity of soil. Three types of sample were prepared as per 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.7% of cotton fiber. For instances, it deliberately increases the Dry Density of soil up to 48.05 KN/m3 where as normal unreinforced soil sample gives about 22 KN/m3. The Ultimate bearing capacity increases up to 80.65 Kpa whereas the unreinforced soil sample gives for 35 Kpa. The result of California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test gives desired value (23%) than unreinforced soil (17%). The CBR test is performed only for 0.7% of cotton fiber where maximum stress is found. The most significant part in this study is to show the variation on cotton fiber for ground improvement technique at different ratio. This paper shows the gradual increase in Deviator stress for UCS tests for the increase in the percent of cotton fiber mixing with Fly Ash. This research may meet the need of ground having low strength at important sites.

Improved Concrete Properties Using Quarry Dust as Replacement for Natural SandIJERD Editor
Concrete plays a major role in the construction industry. Natural sand is a prime material used for
the preparation of concrete and also plays an important role in Mix Design. Now a day’s river erosion and other
environmental issues have led to the scarcity of river sand. The reduction in the sources of natural sand and the
requirement for reduction in the cost of concrete production has resulted in the increased need to find new
alternative materials to replace river sand so that excess river erosion is prevented and high strength concrete is
obtained at lower cost. One such material is Quarry stone dust: a by-product obtained during quarrying process.
Attempts have been made to study the suitability of Quarry dust as sand replacing material and it has been found
that Quarry dust improves the mechanical properties of concrete as well as elastic modulus. The optimum
compressive strength is achieved at the proportion of fine to coarse with 60:40 ratio

Making model of dual axis solar tracking with Maximum Power Point Trackingijsrd.com
Now a days solar harvesting is more popular. As the popularity become higher the material quality and solar tracking methods are more improved. There are several factors affecting the solar system. Major influence on solar cell, intensity of source radiation and storage techniques The materials used in solar cell manufacturing limit the efficiency of solar cell. This makes it particularly difficult to make considerable improvements in the performance of the cell, and hence restricts the efficiency of the overall collection process. Therefore, the most attainable maximum power point tracking method of improving the performance of solar power collection is to increase the mean intensity of radiation received from the source used. The purposed of tracking system controls elevation and orientation angles of solar panels such that the panels always maintain perpendicular to the sunlight. The measured variables of our automatic system were compared with those of a fixed angle PV system. As a result of the experiment, the voltage generated by the proposed tracking system has an overall of about 28.11% more than the fixed angle PV system. There are three major approaches for maximizing power extraction in medium and large scale systems. They are sun tracking, maximum power point (MPP) tracking or both.

Reducing Silicon Real Estate and Switching Activity Using Low Power Test Patt...ijsrd.com
Power dissipation is a challenging problem for today's system-on-chip design and test. This paper presents a novel architecture which generates the test patterns with reduced switching activities; it has the advantage of low test power and low hardware overhead. The proposed LP-TPG (test pattern generator) structure consists of modified low power linear feedback shift register (LP-LFSR), m-bit counter, gray counter, NOR-gate structure and XOR-array. The seed generated from LP-LFSR is EXCLUSIVE-OR ed with the data generated from gray code generator. The XOR result of the sequence is single input changing (SIC) sequence, in turn reduces the switching activity and so power dissipation will be very less. The proposed architecture is simulated using Modelsim and synthesized using Xilinx ISE9.2.The Xilinx chip scope tool will be used to test the logic running on FPGA.
Defending Reactive Jammers in WSN using a Trigger Identification Service.ijsrd.com
In the last decade, the greatest threat to the wireless sensor network has been Reactive Jamming Attack because it is difficult to be disclosed and defend as well as due to its mass destruction to legitimate sensor communications. As discussed above about the Reactive Jammers Nodes, a new scheme to deactivate them efficiently is by identifying all trigger nodes, where transmissions invoke the jammer nodes, which has been proposed and developed. Due to this identification mechanism, many existing reactive jamming defending schemes can be benefited. This Trigger Identification can also work as an application layer .In this paper, on one side we provide the several optimization problems to provide complete trigger identification service framework for unreliable wireless sensor networks and on the other side we also provide an improved algorithm with regard to two sophisticated jamming models, in order to enhance its robustness for various network scenarios.

Abstract-Rammed earth offers an economical and
sustainable alternative to concrete. The problem like
shrinkage, proper soil selection, low compressive strength,
cracking, durability aspects is rammed earth construction.
One way to address these problems is to stabilize rammed
earth. The primary objective of this study is to make use of
the RHA(waste material) with NS and understand its effects
on the geotechnical properties, compressive strength &
weathering. The proctor tests results indicates that with the
increase in RHA percentage there was an increase in the
Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) and reduction in the
Maximum Dry Density (MDD). The cube compressive
strength values decreased with subsequent addition of RHA
to its maximum at 5% RHA. The deterioration is increases
with increasing in RHA content
I. INTRODUCTION
Rammed earth is known as a material as well as
construction technique where soil is taken from the ground
and compacted to form structures. The soil compacted in
removable formwork. Rammed earth buildings are found
around the Mediterranean, and along the same latitude in
Iran, Pakistan, India and China.
The Great Wall of China is also constructed with
rammed earth. Rammed earth was taken by the Europeans to
South America, and many colonial buildings in parts of
Brazil and Columbia are constructed in rammed earth. The
rediscovery of rammed earth as a sustainable building
material prompted its use in Australia and the southern
United States from the early 1970s onward.
Today rammed earth is receiving increased interest
as sustainable construction practices become more main
stream. Rammed earth constructions can be classified into
two broad categories: stabilized rammed earth and un-
stabilized rammed earth. Unsterilized rammed earth is made
from mainly soil, sand and gravel. Whereas stabilized
rammed earth contains additives like cement or lime in
addition to soil, sand and gravel.
In country like India traffic on National or State
Highway is near to 4500 CVD, hence m.s.a is near to 150
m.s.a. If those Highways are constructed in Black cotton soil
it becomes problematic due to its characteristics.
II. OBJECTIVES
This research will draw a comparison between the NS
available locally in Ahmadabad &available literatures
thereby indicating the suitability of NS for the use of RE.
Since there are very few guidelines available for rammed
earth when combined with a waste material like RHA.
The primary objective of this study is to make use
of the RHA (waste material) with NS and understand its
effects on the geotechnical properties, compressive strength
& weathering.
The study also intends to quantify the amount of
RHA to be added to the NS according to the values of soil
properties measured, in order to enhance the properties of
rammed earth. Establishing properties of locally available
natural soil and comparing it with properties of soil suitable
for rammed earth construction as per published literature.
III. EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM
1) Collection of soil sample
2) Establishing soil properties
3) Proportioning with RHA & re-establishing its properties
4) Ns + RHA (5, 10, 15%)
5) Further investigation by analyzing its UCS, cube
compressive strength results at various moisture contents
and weathering results
Following tests are carried out.

Fig. 2. OMC (g/cc) versus RHA (%)
The proctor tests results shown in the Figure 1 and 2
indicated that with the increase in RHA percentage there
was an increase in the Optimum Moisture Content (OMC).
It was also observed that with the increase in RHA
percentage there was a reduction in the Maximum Dry
Density (MDD)
Fig. 3. Unconfined compressive strength of NS with various
percentage of RHA
The UCS values decreased with subsequent addition of
RHA to its maximum at 5% RHA. As shown in Figure 3.
Decreasing in UCS value may be due to the excess RHA
introduced to the soil and therefore forming weak bonds
between the soils.

percentage of RHA
The cube compressive strength values decreased with
subsequent addition of RHA to its maximum at 5% RHA as

Table 1 – Results for Spray Test
As shown in table 1 as percentage of RHA increase the
deterioration time decreases. At the 15 % RHA content the
deterioration takes place about 95 % in only 21 minutes.
V. CONCLUSION
There was a decrease in the MDD on addition of RHA.
There was an increase in the Optimum Moisture Content
(OMC) from 9.84% to 19 % on addition of RHA. The
decrease in the MDD can be attributed to the replacement of
soil and by the RHA in the mixture which have relatively
lower specific gravity compared to that of the soil. Also
since RHA has a low specific gravity & is inherently a
weaker material than NS, there is reduction in the UCS
values. From table 1. it was observed that when spray test
was conducted on 100% N.S. sample the soil sample
disintegrated in 45 min whereas when weathering test was
conducted on N.S. + varying % of RHA
(5%,10%,15%)cubes, the sample had disintegrated in 20 to
30 min. There is a reduction in compressive strength when
RHA is added to NS due to the lack of formation of
cementation compounds so addition of cement or lime is
must require for stabilization of rammed earth.
